Why do people keep saying I am angry. I am bothered that people assume that I am stirring the pot when I am simply stating a difference in opinion. And it appears if you look at the history of postings that anyone new does not fit in unless they have the same voice as the group. Look over the posts.....

FYI: Therapists with those qualifications can be found "in the systems" -- the foster care system, the juvenile justice system, the public mental health system, the prison system, etc. Because they are situations with high case loads, difficult clients, little pay, high burn-out, etc.

So yes, Perna, many people have therapists like that because they have no other choice.
